Basically I'm trying to figure out how to increase this:

Mem: 39M Active, 509M Inact, 234M Wired, 28K Cache, 112M Buf, 1221M Free

I've checked 5 different servers and they all have a value of around 112MB used for buffering, even though the physical RAM varies from 1GB - 4GB

Tried increasing maxusers but that hasn't changed anything, buf still tops out at 112MB

How do I get FreeBSD to use more memory for disk caching?
